Prime Minister Sebastien Lecornu will address parliament on Tuesday to spell out his budget priorities, hoping to win over enough Socialists to stave off losing a no-confidence vote that would plunge France further into the political mire.
When Sebastien Lecornu gave his first prime-time television interview just hours after resigning as France’s prime minister on Wednesday, he described himself as a “soldier monk” — a man of duty ready to return to service if President Emmanuel Macron called him back to the front line.
French President Emmanuel Macron on Friday reappointed Sébastien Lecornu as prime minister, just days after his resignation, hoping the loyal ally can secure enough backing in a fractured parliament to pass the 2026 budget.
France's new Prime Minister Sebastien Lecornu resigned on Monday, barely 14 hours after appointing his new cabinet, after allies and foes alike threatened to topple his government, driving French stocks and the euro sharply lower.
